Review:
Though I found this book to be interesting reading it was not one that overly stimulated me or inspired me in any way. I did find that the stories shared by the authors Lutz and Smith had a nice touch that helped to make the book more personal and helped me to better understand the messages they were trying to convey. I did find that the pictures also helped me to better understand things. I am such a visual person, so I enjoyed the visual imagery showing me what they were talking about. The writing style was smooth and easy to read. I had no problem with understanding the message or any words shared in each chapter. I simply am not politically minded so I had a difficult time maintaining an interest in the subject. I do believe that the authors have written a good book. I did not see personal interpretation or bias. I saw well formed, extremely well researched writing. I was truly impressed by the well-done research in this book. I think there are those who will truly love this book and benefit from reading it. For those like me, the non-politically minded ones, you might consider another book to read.
